Dangerous heat warning here for a few days.
90s here in the Mountains, which is unusual. New York City will be a hell hole for sure.
The temperature actually rose through the night after the rain stopped. The windows were fogged when I woke up. I couldn't stop taking pictures, it was so eery.
I brought some Japanese indigo seeds with me. When I moved. Finally found them.
I will plant them in the drenched earth today. And maybe in some pots. See if they sprout. I hope so. That will bring me new joy.
I am having a lot of internet issues, I don't care anymore. If I'm here, I'm here. If not, I'm still Here. If I'm not Here, I'll be there.
90F=32C
now i get it, hot&humid is hard work, i go swimming a lot with Snoop
🤞rooting for those indigo seeds!
do I spot a snail ?? yay
Planted and waiting.
Meanwhile 14C this morning!!! Life in the mountains. 😂
Here .. There .. Everywhere!!
We’ll see you when we see you … in the meantime stay happy and healthy. Enjoy those grand babies and your beautiful surroundings.
Just that…❤️
Love the deer in the mist.
We’ve had the longest spring weather I ever remember but now the heat is coming. At least we don’t have your humidity. It’s the hot nights I dislike the most.
Hang in there through weather and internet issues; we’ll be here. Or there.
Here, there and everywhere!
Jude~ I find great joy in your grouping of critters honoring seeds. 🙂 Those foggy views are “moody” (as Jen said) indeed. Here we have almost completely skipped our typical “June Gloom”, so no foggy mornings for us.
The mist was nice, very storybook.
Heat wave in Central Massachusetts also. Listening to the E. Jean Carroll
new audio book ‘Not My Type’. It is marvelous. Also stitching a bit and enjoying the quiet.
I hope your indigo seeds do well.
Seeds are so exciting.
I’ll look for you when you’re here Jude. You and Soul-O be well…
👍
Our Solstice was dark, wet, cold, and stormy. Low temps went down to near freezing and I don’t think my beans will germinate now. We don’t suffer humidity with our heat. For that I am REALLY glad.
Yes, dry heat I can handle.
Grow, indigo, grow. We are finally having normal June weather, overcast and some rain. It feels good
I bet! Can’t say what’s normal for me here yet.
I doubt Japanese indigo is native to your area. I know that Japanese knotweed (a different plant – but still…) was brought here and is wreaking havoc on our ecosystems. Just a caution is all.
Really? It thrived where I was before but was never invasive.
Hot and muggy already this morning! Glad you found your indigo seeds. 💙
My son turned 36 today and that makes me feel OLD 😬
Have peaceful day planting 💙🌿🌱
Well, I’m older!
At least the sun is out.
We are in the middle of a HEAT WAVE in and near Kingston, ON and wow it is soooo hot. There was a 3-hour nighttime an evening ago – and the TORNADA warnings came fast and many forests and lakes were hit with downed trees – we saved many of the campers and yet, they have lost their cars and campers – so very sad.
Take care – and yes, I hate the Internet problems we are all seeming to get hit with this year… We know you are here. And wait – it’s all we can do…Take care. Just rest and MAKE!!
The sudden hot and cold always stirs things up. Got a tree that really needs to come down here. Next on the list.
here in the midwest the same heat dome over the weekend — sort of nature’s way of saying “it’s summer!”
living in nh in the early 90 and even early 2000’s, the heat didn’t really show up until later in July. several days of hot and then a wonderful storm would come through and push out all of the humidity and heat. loved how we could see the storm coming and that wonderful rumble of thunder and rainbows afterward. several times I saw 3 of them.
I love a good storm…
We’re hot here, too, but becoming drier. We’ve been granted so much rain this Spring, we are spoiled. My Gardens are native and adapted, so my watering is minimal. My plants are toughened to seasons of intense heat. And so am I. Bring it on, Summer! You just make me relish Fall that much more when it arrives!
I’ve never grown indigo…will love to enjoys yours vicariously!
I’m testing the seeds …if they are viable. We’ll see…
The heat is building here as well, wretched hot over the weekend ( but at least not NYC! 😱) Our lightning aftermath continues and I’m exhausted….by everything.
Birds are singing here too and it makes my heart sing.
Your foggy windows are so moody! Wild!!
It’s cool in this cordwood house tho…
similar here, but less so. the gods are rightly angry, goddesses, too. but here, early, i walked and saw three young horses and two mares. they know horse things, which is reassuring.
Absolutely, the birds are singing summer songs…
Heat … humidity … not as easily accommodated by this body moving into its 8th decade. The deer through the window … mystical morning moment.
Yeah, humidity was never my friend.
Glennis~ “they know horse things, which is reassuring” – ha. What a good thing to remember and consider all others ‘know’ their things too. When I next go to the Bridge, I will think that the birds (crows, hawks, etc.) ‘know bird things’…this is a very happy thought to me.
